    eat less beef?

    China had a mandate on how many kids you could have. Other countries have as well. I agree with less people need less resources. China also has a booming middle class that wants grain fed meats. Russia is coming on line with a cow herd now. The demand for resources will grow. In nature when a...

    eat less beef?

    I find it laughable that we can believe 7 billion people have no effect on climate. Come on now. Change in climate has been around since the beginning but to think we can’t speed those changes up is ignorant. Cattle can help sequester carbon. That’s a fact. Let’s stick to that as a legitimate...

    That Zulu son sure looks like his daddy did at that age.

    Black shorthorns

    And if you need to turn your shorthorns black to be successful, I raise my eyebrow at your cattle breeding abilities.

    Black shorthorns

    Librarian and XBAR are correct. Pharo cattle is just a big co-op. Not a program. If Pharo was such a good cattleman why doesn’t his cattle have generations of his breeding in them? He’s a good salesman. Most cattle folks follow trends or people they deem cool. I think we all do it when we first...

    Is he stout enough for you?

    This isn't directed toward anybody in particular. Wouldn't it be refreshing if a producer would just admit to how much a critter is eating?  Fat sells and the race is on. Who can get them the fattest on the least? I think we all know better. I'm suppose to believe a bull is in his condition from...

    land bridge from Scotland to Norway

    Actually a new theory from Randall Carlson is a meteoric impact happened about 16,000 years ago over the North American ice cap which set off massive glacial thawing and caused the sea to rise over 300 feet. Global warming has been occurring for 200 years now. Is it not possible humans are...

    Texas Red Angus steers?

    And people wonder why shorthorns have a bad rap commercially. How in the hell do you see no heart? Deep chested is a good thing.

    Genex semen catalog 2017

    Thanks for correcting me. Still a useful bull to me. Especially if that's a son of his. Anybody bred a Chisum on a Resource cow or vice versa?

    Newbie Looking to get started

    There isn't a large following of shorthorns anywhere. Do your homework. If you want to learn the show ropes within the breed, talk with Mr Olson above.

    Possible donor cow

    4508 will probably make cows too small for what folks like in Canada. 034 could work for making replacement females. Won't blow you away power wise though. Gauge would be a good choice to me. I'd be cautious with goldenrod if your cow is a heavy milker. JDMC Big Sky. He had a big BW, through the...

    Bad attitude bulls

    I had a JLB Exacto x Finks Pride cow that was straight evil. Evil. She literally mugged her calf when it was born. Bawling so loud at it and pushing it all over. Took forever for the calf to get up. She beat the crap out of it then chased me all over the pasture when I came to tag the calf...

    Philosophies of Breeding

    I see the variation play out in my pigs. I've been trying to maintain that nice deep red meat of the heritagebreeds and get the growth of the modern pig. The first crosses always have huge swings in variation in each litter. Once I identified the sow that seemed to be my best overall pig, I...
